Home Department written question – answered at on 13 September 2006.
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department pursuant to his answer of 6 July 2006, Official Report, column 1328W, on MI5, what other categories of MI5 file there are in addition to personal files; and how many files are held in each category.
In addition to personal files, the Security Service holds files on its policies, internal management matters, subjects and groups it studies, and on people and groups not under investigation—this last category includes those to whom security advice has been given.
It would be of disproportionate cost to establish the numbers of files in each category.
